Not that I blame you if you want a premium experience out of the box, but I've gone to Graphene and am quite happy. https://grapheneos.org/faq https://graphene

Even my SSO works well enough. Some notifications rely on Google Play Services though, but I find I don't really miss those apps anyway.
- eldaisfish 6y agothe problem here is that every single one of these alternate OSs requires advanced knowledge. Granted, it's not difficult to flash your phone via a USB cable + web interface but consider that the average smartphone user isn't even interested in removing bloatware like facebook. The advanced knowledge i'm referring to is to first know that GrapheneOS exists, know how to enable OEM unlocking, know how to select the correct factory image and so on. People don't care and cannot be expected to care. Apple, as much as i dislike several of their practices, provide a phone that works when you need it to. AFAIK, the iphone's primary purpose as a phone - has never had an incident where a software bug prevented someone from placing a call.
